Welcome

An island resort on Himmafushi

The Haven at Paradise Island operates as Villa Nautica, a yacht-life-themed 5-star resort on Himmafushi in the Maldives. The Haven is the property's premium enclave, covering around 40 overwater villas — some with whirlpools — alongside ocean suites and beach villas, most with private pools. Four restaurants and multiple bars cover everything from Japanese teppanyaki to open-air Italian, with a 24-hour coffee shop and Captain's Bar for late arrivals. Araamu Spa, a dive centre with an environmental-conservation focus, and a full watersports centre round out the on-site offer.
